Despite being under the TKO Group Holdings umbrella alongside UFC, WWE hadn’t been involved with the MMA promotion’s upcoming Freedom 250 event, happening on the South Lawn of the White House on June 14. That does not seem like changing with only weeks to go before the controversial show, though WWE will a minimum of have some presence within the lead as much as it.
Taking to X on Monday morning, UFC announced that tickets were now available for the UFC Freedom 250 fan fest, being held on the Ellipse in Washington D.C. The 2 day fan fest will begin on June 13 and conclude on June 14 with a special watch party of Freedom 250. Among the many happenings on the fan fest are meet and greets with UFC stars, live panels and Q&As, the ceremonial weigh in, and a concert by Zac Brown, who may also perform the National Anthem.
WWE’s involvement within the fan fest comes from the meet and greet portion, with UFC announcing that several WWE stars could be joining UFC stars on each June 13 and 14. While UFC announced over 24 fighters for the meet and greet, no WWE names were provided, suggesting that the names had yet to be finalized.

Despite little involvement outside of the meet and greets, a WWE presence at Freedom 250 won’t be seen as that surprising, each as a consequence of their relationship with UFC and the growing association the promotion has had with Donald Trump’s Presidency. WWE chief content officer Triple H has made appearances on the White House within the last yr, and has worked closely with each Trump and Secretary of Health Robert Kennedy Jr. as a part of the Council of Sports, Fitness, and Nutrition. Several WWE stars, including Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes, attended a military rally hosted by Trump one yr ago.
